I continue to be impressed by the high quality of everything you do beyond your paintings---namely these videos and your downloadable tutorial which I recently purchased. Everything from the thorough instruction to camera work to the elegant font to the pleasant background music are top notch.
Carla Grace thank you for telling me :) I work a lot better on smoother surfaces and haven’t used linen before. I find canvas to have to many lumps that you can’t pant precisely Thank you for you help :)
Thank you for a very good explanation of how to stretch canvas. I would like to offer you a free print of my artwork if you like as this was so helpful and I didnt have to pay for the advice. Sarah - Jane
I avoid keying because it pushes the corners out and the frame is no longer square. Linen and canvas flex depending on if the paint is wet (it becomes more slack) or dry (it tightens). You can over stretch the fabric by keying all the time
Thank you Carla I love see your tutorial and stories in Instagram
Very thorough and helpful tutorial. Definitely a reference to keep. It's very generous of you to share this knowledge freely Carla. Thank You!
Ricardo Búzio you are so welcome 😊

Have you ever tried to spray water evenly on the back side after binding, the effect will be smoother and tighter
胡三金 画虎 yes this is a recommendation stated at the end of the tutorial video
Excellent video 👌 #drawwithprahlad
Why are you stapling the corners? Doesn't that interfere with keying?)

Thankyou for not letting us spend more money to buy much expencive art boards
This classic method didn't work at all for my high-quality, pre-gessoed linen.
Sorry to hear that. It works for mine. See if another method works for you. Some artists wet their linen first
same here, did you find a method that gets a nice flat all round stretch?
Come to al Islam n success
